Most people don’t name check Quik when speaking about some of the best MC/producer’s in the game. To be honest, most people don’t even know he’s a producer and only know of him as a rapper via his platinum debut, 1991’s Quik is the Name breakthrough singles. To be honest, I didnt even know Quik was behind the boards until Tupac’s All Eyez On Me album.
I’ve found two very different mixes by some cats that are adamant about making sure Quik’s name doesn’t get left out the next time you’re having a convo about relevant MC/producers. First up is DJ Matthew Afrika”s The Best of DJ Quik which has a great writeup (Read HERE) on Quik and his accolades and then there’s J Rizzle’s instrumental continuous mix of Quik beats. Great to ride to, chill to or bump at the cookout
